The generalized asymmetric Laplace (GAL) distribution, also known as the variance/mean-gamma model, is a popular flexible class of distributions that can account for peakedness, skewness, and heavier than normal tails, often observed in financial or other empirical data. We consider extensions...

This paper considers risks of the investment portfolio, which consist of distributed mortgages and sold European call options. It is assumed that the stream of the credit payments could fall by a jump. The time of the jump is modeled by the exponential distribution. We suggest that the returns...

Abstract In this paper, we discuss the problem of calculating the primary risk measures in the variance-gamma model. A portfolio of investments in a one-period setting is considered. It is supposed that the investment returns are dependent on each other. In terms of the variance-gamma model, we...
